Red Star line, bound from New York to Ant
werp, is ashore on Goodwin Sands near Deal,
Dover straits. The passen yers-thirty
saloon. twelve second cabin, and about
seventy steerage- and the crew were
rescued by the steam tug Duora and landed

at the hands of the station master, who tee-
graphed to Dover to delay the Ostend boat.
They proceeded by the train to Dover, where
they boarded the steamer for Ostend.
One of the passengers said: I'VE left New
York on February 20 In the Waesand for
Antwerp. All proceeded well until Wednes-
day, when we experienced a dense fog. Cap

Hypocrisy.
TPlain Dealer.l

Notwithstanding the Republican
party in convention in Ohio declared
that we have placed the war, with its
hates and revenges, behind US, the
main political thunder will be section
al prejudice and continuation of hate
and stirring up of strife between the
two sections If the Republican lead
ers OF Ohio intended what their plat
form said, why did they revert to the
bloody shirt business when referring
to the returning of the trophies of
war? Why did Senator Sherman in
his Springfield speech aurl his anathe-
mas at that region where but few
weeks before he held out the olive
branch by extolling defeated foe?
The hypocritical cant of these men
Sherman and Foraker is unequaled by
the lying of Ananias Mr. Sherman
did not understand public sentiment
when in Springfield he heaped Goals
upon an extinct fire. His selfish
ambition led him into mistake from
which he attempted in the Republican
platform of Ohio to extricate himself.
His blowing hot in Alabama and cold
in Illinois will gain him nothing. The
people of this country demand sim
cerity and not hypocrisy.
Double dealing has caused liberal
and freemlnded members of the Re-
publican party to gradually leave its
ranks. The good that it could once
boast of is a thing of the past. The
selfish ambition of its leaders drove
the Republican party from power and
left it without principle and but one
object in life, the gain of official spoils.

A Cheeky Cadet.

Sometimes, when the offenses Of
West Point cadets are very fragrant,
courts-martial are called to try them.
These are composed of army officers,
who sit in trial like judge and jury
when the offender is in civil instead of
in military life. These courts-mar-
tial are often very funny. Once there
was youngster who was so perfectly
outrageous that he knew he would be
dismissed at the approaching examina-
ton, so he determined to have good
time before he left. On the grounds
was an old disused shed of some kind,
and in it the young hopeful piled all
the shavings, rags, and everything
else combustible he could get, and one
fine night he set match to it and had
bonfire of his own. Of course sus-
picion pointed to him, and court of
inquiry was organized to investigate
the outrage. General Thayer was
superintendent and Colonel Fry COM
mandant of the cadets. When the
prisoner was called up for examina-
ton before the court, composed of Off
GERS of high rank, imposing in the mai
esty of the law, he was asked to state
what he knew about the fire.
I-I don't know anything myself
but what is hearsay testimony, and
you won't admit that" he replied.
''The court does not desire your
views on hearsay testimony" severely
remarked the prosecutor. "You are
directed to state what may have come
to your knowledge regarding the af-
fair" ..
"Well, but" objected the culprit, II
don't know anything about it, and what
l heard / don't believe"
"The court, sir" thundered the Off
Ger, "has not inquired into your be-
lief. You willimmediately state what
yeu heard"
.'But, but-you don't believe me,
either"
By that time the court was in a
rage. "Go on, sir" roared several
officers together. ~ ~,
''Well, they do say" stammered the
cadet difidently, "that General Thay-
er got the shavings and old Fry set

The tariff imposes tax Of $40 per
ton on salt. Figures seem TO show that
this tariff duty costs the farmers of the
United States over g, 600 900 year.
There are nearly 100000 farmers in
the United States. Every farmer uses
more or less salt for his cows, sheep, and
other cattle; for curing his meat, and
making butter. Four hundred pounds
per head of salt for each farmer is con-
sidered a very moderate estimate for
the salt used. The tax is thus about so
cents per farm, or S, 600, 900 yearly. As
many farmers use more or less salt for
manure-some as high as 500 to 1000
pounds per acre on mangles, clover and
other vegetables and grasses-their pro-
portion of the salt duty is more than so
cents a year.-Prairie Farmer.

Though the apple trees blossomed
very profusely, only light crop of fruit
can this year be looked for. 1t is now
over fifty years since observing orchard
lists noticed that American apple trees
bear their heaviest crops in the even
years, and their lightest in the odd
years. Last year, which was even num-
bered, the crop was very heavy one,
the biggest in many years, and hence,
this being an odd numbered year, we
can expect only light crop the COM
ing season.
